Los Angeles County brothers get probation for breaking into US Capitol during Jan. 6 riot – By Sean Emery (Los Angeles Daily) / Nov 16 2021
Two brothers from Los Angeles County who broke into the U.S. Capitol during the Jan. 6 riots have been sentenced to probation rather than time behind bars after agreeing to plea deals.
Kevin Cordon, 33, of Alhambra was sentenced to 12 months of probation and Sean Cordon, 35, of Los Angeles was sentenced to two months of probation during separate sentencing hearings in recent days in a Washington, D.C. courtroom.
Both men were tracked down by the FBI and charged with breaking into the Capitol and attempting to impede an official proceeding after a video interview of them taken just outside the Capitol on the day of the riot was posted on a Finnish news website.
The video on the news site reportedly depicted Kevin Cordon — wrapped in an American flag with blood on his forehead — admitting to entering the Capitol and getting hit with a projectile. Sean Cordon apparently could be seen in the background.
